My own personal experience has been that money
is safer with women than with men, Most women
can beat man AL to pitc,s' making Il bargain,
ard the marketmen and gTocers seldom get ahead
Of them, whereas most men are careless purchasers
Finding Fault.
From Harper's Bazar.
1t IS one of the easiest things in the world to find
fault, especially nothing seems quite perfect
There is the late spring, the we lther the bills tho
appetite, the cook, the mosquito, the microbe. and
tie eyoutionst. Besides this everybody is full of
fuuls, ana il we DO not see them it must be because
we are not looking out for them. There are ones
neighbors; nobody knows what benefaction neigh
bors till one can find ault with them 1t is only
necessary to live with or near people to discover how
vain and selfish, how eXtTavagant and niggardlv
how indolent, how fussy, and unlovely they are.
III most cases we Will discover that it Is our friends
who find the most fault with u.s. either because thew
love Us most, or eaause we are so near them that
they more readily perceive our failings than our
graccs
But it is mistake to find fault too often; one gets
the reputation Of shrew, and the constant nagging
is irritating to the temper, and helps no one To be
TO anothers faults little lind, seems to some the
poorest method. We don't need to be told of-our
faiIings nobody is well aware of them as we are
ourselves. We know when we are jealous, when we
are ill-tempered, when we are "iolchy," when we
are awkward and ignorant; and yet many seem to
believe it their duty to acquaint US with all cur
short comings exaggerated manner?
If they overlook any other duty, they are diligent
to attend to this With some people it develops into
fine art. In certain moods it is more agreeable to
find fault than to praise; it shows more power of
mind more cultivation talent for the study Of
humanity but those who are the most ready to pur-
sue this art are the most displeased another con
nosseur brings them in turn under his microscope.
We pleased to call it analysis Of character when
we pick neigbbors TO pieces; and wish he was as
agreeable as ourselves; and if he should Lecone
fautless, our occupation would be gone. We fancy
ourselves bent upon REFORM but would it not some
times give pang if we could see nothing to cayil
at?
"Oh don't the days seem lank and long
When all goes right and nothing goes wrong,
And isn't your life extremely fat
With nothing whatever to grumble at?'
The world would, indeed, be a hollow mockery to
many ofus if there were not worm in the bud, q
wrinkle IN the rose leaf.
